Almost 900 girls have reported their commitments at TennisRecruiting.net, and the bulk of these commitments have been to schools outside the so-called "high major" conferences that get automatic bids to the College Football Playoff. In tennis, we consider the high majors to be the ACC, Big 10, Big 12, Pac-12, and SEC - as well as the Ivy League.

The rankings in this article include all teams outside of those conferences.

Top 25 Mid-Major Women's Recruiting Classes (through May 17)

The Tennis Recruiting Network and Solfire are excited to present the Top 25 Mid-Major Women's Recruiting Classes for 2014. This list is based on commitments reported on or before May 17, 2014. As is our policy, these rankings do not consider incoming transfer students.

The Rice women's tennis program has just finished its most successful three-year run in school history. Prior to 2012, the Owls had never won an NCAA tournament match. Since 2012, Rice has won four NCAA matches - reaching the second round or better each year. They are also fresh off their second straight Conference USA title.

Head coach Elizabeth Schmidt, now in her fifth season at the helm, has two seniors to replace from 2013-14 who were regular contributors in the lineup. Fortunately, she has a talented pair of 5-Star recruits arriving this fall.

The teams in our rankings represent fifteen states and the District of Columbia. Not surprisingly, the two states with the most ranked recruiting classes are Florida and California.

The Sunshine State has three ranked classes - including two in the Top 5. At No. 2, Florida International leads all comers, and they are joined at the top by No. 4 Stetson. Also in the rankings is Central Florida at No. 13.

The Golden State also has three ranked programs, starting with St. Mary's at No. 5. The Gaels are joined by UC Davis (No. 18) and San Diego (24).

Other states with multiple programs in the recruiting class rankings are Colorado, Georgia, Massachusetts, Ohio, and Texas, all with two ranked classes apiece.

Conference Call

These ranked classes hail from fifteen different conferences - thirteen NCAA Division I conferences and three from D-III.

Speaking of more rankings, this coming Monday, TennisRecruiting.net and Solfire will release rankings of the Top 25 men's recruiting classes in NCAA Division III. Soon after we will wrap up our spring recruiting class rankings with the top D-III women.
